Gamers respect quality, and generally they don't mind waiting for a superior product. Yes, games are expensive to make, and taking longer to finish development means that money isn't coming in, but it's much better than having your game flop because it is recognized as a rushed product. If people liked the last game, they probably won't forget about the sequel, even if it takes longer than two years to make.One of the biggest things that I think would help alleviate the crunch time is if publishers stopped adhering to the idea that a sequel needs to be pumped out within two years of the last game.

Look at FF versus 13 and The last guardian for example.
These 2 games have been in development for how long now?
The thing I believe from Japanese development is that they focus too much time doing cut scenes that is irrelevant to the game instead of getting the game done already, and its the main reason the final fantasy franchise is dead.Totally agree.
